- Abstract:
- Process of validating substation grounding system includes extensive measurements of earth surface potentials and complex measuring results analysis. In order to automate and improve validation process, a customized automated measuring system needed to be developed. It consists of an intelligent measuring device and integrated program environment for measurement data management and analysis on personal computer. This paper describes measurement methodology concepts along with implementation issues of an integrated program environment as a part of such a system. Measuring project concept has been elaborated in details as a foundation for building an integrated program environment which conforms to methodology concepts. Implementation details of some specific program modules are also presented in order to clarify and extend methodology concepts.
